  1. Hi all, need some advice. I have no fashion experience, other than being a DJ at a large boutique in Los Angeles, and handling some sales, but that was a long time ago. My only career experience has been in the music industry, which has been very good to me, but lacks the social interaction and fast paced, season to season lifestyle that I enjoy in fashion.. As well as keeping up with trends and researching, etc. Is there any hope for me if school isn't really an option (i'm not exactly a kid anymore). I also don't really want to necessarily work in the actual manufacturing of clothes but more style / identity side of things. I'd love to be able to use my skills in the music industry (producing, etc) and somehow collaborate with designers on visual/audio identity, but not sure if they usually hire people for that or go through an actual marketing company or just seek friends or people of celebrity or scene popularity.  

     

    Thanks! Interested in seeing what kind of dialogue this can bring forward. 

     

    STEP ONE: BE FAMOUS

  2. If anyone in NYC is looking for a internship for school credit next semester, and would be down to work/"gain experience" in a mostly menswear showroom for a day or two a week, PM me. It's going to be unpaid, which I agree totally sucks and would change if I could but on the plus side you get to hang out with me, touch clothes, meet funny Japanese fashion buyers, and sometimes there is a dog in the office that you can pet.  

     

    Still looking for help if anyone has free time and is looking for experience.  

  3. Not to pardon them or anything but Inventory is literally like 4 people.  There is no S+H department.  Stuff ships from the store, either the VC or NYC location, and is packed by the sales associate working that day. 

     

    It's possible your item was on the rack at the store, wasn't sold at the brick and mortar, and then transferred to the envelope.  I guess it kinda sucks it wasn't folded but like, yeah.  It's not Barneys.   

     

    edit: it's also highly likely that the "customer service rep" is the same person that packed your envelope, because again, the operation is literally like 4 people.
